A Snapshot of a Church Plant in Progress

I came across the following update on the Jacob’s Well church-plant that Reid Monaghan is heading up in New Jersey (link).  I don’t really know Reid, but he was in a few seminary classes with me at the Nashville extension center so I have followed what he is doing via the blogosphere.

I recommend you read this whether you are involved in or interested in church-planting, or involved in an established church.  In fact, I think it could be more beneficial for those of us who are currently involved in established churches because much of what he wrote about are things all of us should be doing in our normal lives as Christ-followers.

There is nothing like “4 keys to church-planting success” in the post.  It is just a snapshot showing what they have been doing, working towards, and praying about in their journey.  The most interesting and encouraging aspect of the update to me was seeing the missional mindset they seem to have in their lives which I think all of us should have.  Anyway, I got something out of the read so I thought I would pass it along to you.

Read the update here.
